I tell you, making a Capt sim 747 would take 3 years with all the cabin, animation, gauges and everything else-it would be their biggest project yet! I think.

But Well worth the wait!

I don't think that making gauges and all that would make any longer than making them for CS 707 took, really 747 doesn't have that much more gauges than any other airliner from same era. Yeah virtual Cabin would take a lot of time, but of course they wouldn't necessarily have to model complete cabin but just part of it like they did with their 757.

Keep in mind the Classic 747 has around 950 switches, that is far more than the 707, it will take a while, only one developer i can think of has exceeded that with the Concorde.

Ok didn't know that... But I wonder how many of them really are ones that are actually used in normal situations and have to be modeled to actually do something? Some of them surely can be just dummy switches.

Or CS could model a virtual FE like flight sim labs did for Concorde. For fuel transferring etc. because I can tell. In the 747 the FE has his work cut out I can tell you! Cheesy
